The History
The roots of Crawford Farm began in the late 1700’s when General Henry Knox, a compatriot of George Washington, acquired a large tract of land in what would become the town of Warren. Captain Niven Crawford and his wife Jane bought a portion of the land, built the house in the early 1800’s and raised 7 children there. Captain Crawford was a ship captain who kept his ship in Thomaston Harbor. Be sure to look for a picture of Captain Crawford and Jane in the kitchen!
The property stayed in the family through several generations until it was purchased by a dairy farmer in the early 1900’s. The farm then sold milk right up through the 1960’s. Many of the original architectural details of the house can still be seen and the barn remains almost completely original with just a few adjustments to allow the barn to live on with a new purpose.
the venue
Crawford Farm offers our guests a spacious barn to celebrate your wedding, an expansive outdoor area perfect for amazing photographs, lawn games, a cozy fire in the fire pit the night before the wedding, ample parking and a dedicated staff to help with anything you might need. There is also a room for the groom and his attendants to make their final preparations.
A weekend event at Crawford Farm includes a two night stay in our four bedroom, Federal style house. Four comfortable bedrooms, a gorgeous new kitchen for a Sunday brunch, a beautiful salon for the bridal party to have hair and makeup done will make an event at Crawford Farm the perfect venue to make your dreams come to life!

What People Have to Say…
Laurie and Bart are wonderful to work with. They made sure we had all the small details to make our day run smoothly. I asked Laurie if they had an arbor we could use, which they didn’t- so Bart built one for us and now others to use! They are wonderful people and very easy to talk to. The venue is gorgeous, and you have access to the house which has its own salon room for makeup and hair. There are so many photo opportunities inside the house with the antique furniture. This venue was amazing and made our dreams come true for our wedding!
ABSOLUTELY stunning, everything about this place is amazing. I cannot express how wonderful it is inside and out. Bart and Laurie make you feel like family and their home is yours. I will definitely be holding all my events at Crawford Farm from today on. THANK YOU!
Our family held an event at Crawford Farm, and we were exceptionally pleased with the entire experience. The barn is well-sized and can be set up for many different types of events, and its decor is rustic, simple, and charming. We also found the catered food to be top notch! And while our event didn’t use the house, it’s been beautifully restored and decorated.
I recommend Crawford Farm highly for any event, from a wedding to a casual party!
As a wedding photographer, Crawford Farm is a STUNNING wedding venue!! It has the old charm of a classic barn venue with all the upscale decor and amenities to make your wedding feel elegant and classy. The owners have put so much time and thought into every single room and have given a great deal of thought to everything you could possible want/need for your day. Laurie is amazing!!! She is so caring about the space and about the couple’s day as a whole. There isn’t a venue I would recommend more in the state of Maine. I absolutely loved shooting here and can’t wait to do it again!
This space and Laurie Murphy are incredible! If you’re in the market for a Midcoast venue, make sure to go check it out.
So much charm at this venue, Laurie is ready to make your day special. Don’t wait; book today!
My wife and I had our wedding at Crawford Farm. Laurie is absolutely amazing. Her knowledge and skill for creating a beautiful wedding environment are unrivaled. Laurie was there every step of the way during the planning phase of our ceremony offering very much needed advice. Crawford Farm is such a beautiful venue, the rustic yet elegant barn is over the top. My wife and I highly recommend this venue.
Absolutely amazing venue. Laurie knows her stuff and was such a pleasure to work with. Our wedding was so beautiful and smooth thanks to amazing woman. Thank You Laurie.
Friendly staff, lovely owners and a beautiful venue! Look forward to a visit again sometime soon.
Highly recommend this venue for a wedding, reunion, meetings, whatever. The old beautifully restored farmhouse is gorgeous!
The Crawford Farm folks generously hosted a fundraiser at their gorgeous venue for the MSSPA. It was *sold out* and SO MUCH FUN! The barn is so beautifully renovated, replete with twinkly lights, and the setting is peaceful and serene. It was a lovely open space where guests could mingle and move about from table to table. And so easy to get to! Right off the road, with plenty of parking. It would be a fun place to host a large gathering or wedding!
Laurie and the staff at Crawford farms were amazing. They made the whole day beautiful and seamless. The venue itself was gorgeous but the staff there made it even better. I could not recommend this place enough. Thank you again Laurie and staff you all were outstanding.
I went looking for a local venue for a family celebration of life with very short notice. I called Crawford Farm and Laurie returned my call very quickly, and was flexible in meeting us to show us the space. Laurie was a pleasure to work with and made what was a somber event as easy and beautiful as it could be. She was accommodating, helpful, and so kind. The space is lovely and as locals, we appreciate all she and Bart have done to honor the farm’s history. I wouldn’t hesitate to schedule another event at Crawford Farm!
